In yet another case of triple talaq, a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh pronounced triple talaq on his wife who stopped him from drinking alcohol, according to reports. The husband had also brutally beaten up the wife. The accused was arrested by the police after the woman filed a complaint in the police station.
The woman who is a resident of Doghat police station area was married to the accused, a resident of Baghpat police station area, six years ago. According to the woman, the accused was addicted to drinking. A year ago he had lost his one leg in one accident after which his father helped him to open a shop. He could not even manage the shop because of his alcohol addiction and suffered losses. He also used to come home drunk every other day and assault his wife.
As per the report, the accused came home drunk on Friday evening and started abusing his wife. He even pushed her to the ground and tried to strangulate her. Next morning he drew her out of the house after which she went to the police station accompanied by her elder sister. The husband has in turn accused his wife initiating the violence and beating him up. A case has been registered against the accused as told by Inspector Karanveer.
The cases of triple talaq do not seem to end despite the Supreme Court judgement declaring the practice of triple talaq as unconstitutional and the government bringing the Triple Talaq Bill.
